Prohibition.
Jackson Clarion:

jackson llarlOn..
The following resolutions aioptedl by
the Prohibitionists of Lincoln county,
show that the wise and patriotic course
of keeping a great moral reform distinct
from party politics is still to be pursued.
Bishop Galloway and Messrs. r. H.
Thompson, J, w. Bennett and A. Lewens
thai, Jr., composed the committee report.
ing the resolutions:
Res0loea, That we heartily approve
the local option law enacted by our last
Legislature and do most earnestly oppose
any material notifications of its wise
provisions. Under its operation num-
Der Of counties have been redeemed from
the curse of the open saloons and others
will soon be added to the prohibition
column. This law compelling agitation
by public discussion, has been an efis
cient educator of the people, and its
enforcement has demonstrated the fact
hat prohibition does prohibit"
Resoloed, That we adhere rigidly to the
declaration adopted by every State con-
vention of Prohibitionists ever held in
Mississippi to keep this movement dis
entangled from, party politics. Our ap,
peal is to all citizens, without regard to
creed, color or political organization aid
in great moral reform, We disavow
any purpose to organize political party
or to become candidates for the RESPONSE

Sensational Shooting.

Jackson, Tenn, July ga sensational
shooting occurred here this morning.
While W. H. Lancaster, formerly pro-
prietor of the Lancaster House, was sit
ting in grocery store near the union
depot reading, J. F. Heaberg, ticket agent
of the Illinois Central railroad, stepped
in the front door and fired at him, the
ball missing its mark. Lancaster ad-
vanced toward Heaberg who moved
backward and fired again, missing his
man.
Mrs. Heaberg then persuaded her hus-
band to 90 home. 1t is not fully known
what caused the trouble, but it is be-
lieved to be on account of real estate
purchased by Heaberg from the Lancas-
ter estate and which the heirs are about
to bring lawsuit to recover, on the
grounds of defective title. Lancaster
swore out state warrant and Heaberg
gave bond for his appearance Monday.
1t is believed friends will prevent any
blood shed.
The Mr.. Heaberg above spoken OF was
for several months in 1878 ticket. agent
and operator in Grenada.

Special to The Times-Democrat.l


JACKSON, Miss, July 22.-The Daily
Advertiser to-day gives the result OF in
terviews by that paper with certain
citizens recently interviewed by Especial
representative sent here by the Mem
phis Appeal, as published in that paper
OF the 18th instant. 1t says:
"Mr. Z. Vlrden, one of our largest dry
goods merchants, repudiates the state
ment attributed to him by this cores
pondent as to the truth of the grand
jury's report and the cause of Gambrell's IS
death, and says that no such converse
ton occurred.
''Mr. A. HI. Muller, a merchant, stated
as to the report of his interview that
most of it was lie manufactured from
the whole cloth. Nothing was said by
him or the reporter about the peniten-
tiary ring, or about its influence in the
State and city that he never even knew
of the existence of any such ring, and
all such statements attributed to him
under that head, representing Hamilton
as its recognized head, are utterly with
out foundation.
"Mr. E. Watkins, a prominent mer-
chant and member of the City Council,
replied that he never said his opinion
was in accord with that of Mr.. Subway,
nor that more bloodshed would follow.
He did not state that the sentiment Of
the people throughout the State was
strongly against Hamilton"
The Advertiser continues: LAS these
gentlemen are the ones most prominently
named in the Appeals report, we have
not deemed it necessary to pursue it
further. We think the above is sui.
ficient to convict the Appeals correspon-
dent of gross misrepresentation of some
of our best and most reliable citizens"

Professor Lawrence G. Johnson of the
United States Geological Survey, who
has been laborously employed in our
State for many months, is now in Wash.
ington for brief rest. His examinations
thus far have enabled him to locate large
bodies Of valuable iron ores in many
parts of Mississippi, and entirely upset
the old theories of the scientists, so
long and obstinately adhered to, that
denied our State place among natures
storehouses of mineral wealth. 1t is to
be hoped that in the allotment from the
appropriation made for the survey
for the present fiscal year, enough
will be given to our division to enable
Prof. johnson to push the surface work.
One man cannot respond to the numer-
GUS calls that come from all portions of
Mississippi; he should have at least one
assistant, and more if possible. In Tip
pah county, we understand, that North>
ern capitalists are buying up mineral
lands rapidly. and obtained options on
Others, and In Northeast Monroe we have
beds of iron ore, brown hemetite, that
will ere many months be feeding furna-
ces in their vicinity.-Aberdeen Ey-

Terrible shooting Affair in Nafchez,
Miss, Ends by Both Men
Being Killed.

A special from Natchez, Miss, of July
o. TO the Memphis Avalanche contains
the following:
Atl2:45 to-day terrible shooting atfall
,ook Mace at the depot of the Natchez
Jackson and Columbus Railroad, between
two employees of the company, j. Y. En-
lere. master mechanic, and John owens
y former workman in the shop. Itappears
that several days ago Enders discharged
Owens for neglect Of duty. This enraged
him to such an extent that he told Enders
he would get even with him by giving him
a good thrashing or killing him. Enders
never said a word, but armed himself
with good pistol, SO that he would be
nrepared at any moment to defend himself,
To-day at the above named hour Owens
went 70 The depot and sent word to Enders,
who was in the shops that ne wished to 70
see him, as he desired to apologize for all
he h ad said. Enders then walked over to
his office and there met Owens, who insul-
ted him and struck him over the head with
a heavy stick, and then placed his hand
in his hin pocket to draw his pistol. En>
ders Immediately drew his pistol and opens
cd FIRE. Owens retreated in order to get
behind some object and open fire on En-
ders. The latter, however was very brave
and followed up his enemy and kept up
the firing, both men going through several
rooms, firing at one another. After Enders
had fred off his FIVE shots three OF which
took effect, Owens fired his third shot,
which struck Enders above his right eye
and went through his head, and he dropped
and expired in thirty minutes. Owens,
after seeing Enders drop, walked through
the hall and went out in the streets, -four
ishing his pistol over his head, boasting
of his success in killing Enders. He had
no sooner finished his remarks, when be
dropped dead. 1t was very evident that
he was unconscious at the time Of having
been shot.
Enders was a favorite emEloye of the
road and good mechanic. He was the
son Of the late DR.. Erders, and comes from
a good family, and was highly esteemed by
ali. and his death is very much lamented.
He leaves o wife and two children to
mourn his demise. Owens had bad name
and was convicted some two years ago for
killing his brother-in-law, but managed to
get new trial and was cleared. He
leaves a wife and child. This shocking
tragedy is deeply mourned and regretted
by the people at large, as it throws bad
name over Natchez, heretofore the quitest
city in the union.

At the court in Barnes county, MINI

At the court in Barnes county, Minn.,
last week, says the ST, Paul Globe, q
juror asked TO be excused on the ground
that his wife was at home alone with six
small children, the Oldest under eleven
years of age. He was excused. Up
sprang another with the excuse that he
had seven under ten years of age: third
said his wife had two pairs Of twins and
he feared an early event would add an.
other pair--and about all the jury seems

Public sentiment is growing daily in
Hamlton's favor. He has been the
worst prosecuted man ever on Mississippi

by fanatical press will decide him an

Mississippi can Take care Of Herself

No little astonishment has been ex.
pressed by the good people Of Mississippi
that the Memphis Appeal and Avalanche
two able, leading journals, should mani.
fast such intense interest in the affairs of
their State. IF ours isan Augean stable
its owners are fully able to cleanse it
without the assistance Of our Tennessee
neiehbors and it does appear to us that
the Memphis papers who have intermed-
died in the affairs of Mississippi have
plenty to do to attend to ae manage
nent of their-own State affairs without
interfering with those o! their neigh
bors.
Advice is said to be the worst form of
sin, especially when rendered unasked
for. Tennessee is a grand old State, but
her people are not unlike ours, and we
doubt not, that if the Appeal and Ava,
lanche would cast their eyes toward
Nashville, they might'find in the man>
agement OF their own State affairs food
for reflection and subjects for criticism.
That there has been mismanagement
in many things in our State administra-
ton, we do not doubt, But that it has
been wilfully and Intentionally done we
do not believe. Gov. Lowry is only Il
man. He is not possessed with iniala-
bility, and it would be hard to convince
any. man who is acquainted with him
that he has connected himself with any
"ring'' tor the purpose of defraudlng the
people whose confidence has twice
placed him in the gubernatorial chair.
The other State officers will compare
favorably with those holding like posi-
tions in any of our sister States They
are honest and faithful public servants
and are responsible to their own people
for any dereliction of duty. That they
have erred there is but little doubt.

THE TRUE LIFE.
The working life Is the life Of peace.
The words Of the wise are golden;
And down the line OF three hundred
years
Comes the truth Of these words grown
oiden.
Not the days that are passed amid songs
and flowers
In dreamy, inactive leisure,
But the days that are strong with the
stress OF toll
Are those OF the truest pleasure.
The eyes that look straight toward God
and heaven,
Nor turn from the path Of duty.
Are the eyes that see. in this changefui
world.
The sights ofthe truest beauty.
Who lives for earth and for self alone
Must find his enjoyments shallow.
While he who lives but for God and
right
Finds something each day to hallow.
He who Is bound by the yoke Of love,
And regains his freedom never.
Has his perfect liberty here on earth,
And he shall be free forever.
O, life Is short, and It's skies sometimes
Are darkened with care and sorrow.
But the loyai-hearted, the brave OF soul,
Has always q glad tomorrow.
Then let US patiently bear the cross.
Our service and love confessing:
For the life of labor and faith and love.
1s the only LIE Of blessing.
